Today I get one of my most needed piece of equipment. I can't afford an oscilloscope - a case of not thinking it's going to get enough use to merit the expense. Thus I bought a frequency counter but as a kit. That makes it cheaper and shouldn't take me too long to solder together.

That is - if the roaming mail thieves don't get to the mailbox before I do.

Basically I want to be able to time the pulses on a pulse generator I'm going to build. Using the pulse generator and a Raspberry Pi (which will count the pulses), I'll be able to work out if the Raspberry Pi Pico is suitable to control a microflash that I plan to build.

With that microflash I should be able to do better than this pic... It's a playing card being cut in two by an airgun pellet.

For Day 6 of , here's an image that was not computer generated, but still involved some code. Colored milk on a speaker blasted with a low frequency audio tone, with camera flash triggered a few milliseconds later.
